If you are a member of the english gentry, what do you inherit?

I believe the answer is: land and sometimes the title of Lord over different sections of land.

All members of English gentry would definitely related to government officials in some ways. In past England society, the English gentries were regarded as a minor nobles but still obtain certain amount of control over land in the feudalistic system.

no because it could make the world a terrible place to live in.

the answer is solomon northrup. he was a free-born african american, abolitionist and professional violinist that was drugged, kidnapped and sold as slave in 1841 and remained in captivity until 1853 where he regained his freedom with the of the then-governor of new york, washington hunt. he wrote and published his memoirs "twelve years a slave" in 1853, and in this text, he tells the story of his escape thru one of louisiana's swamps (the great pacoudrie swamp) in which he ended up covered in green slime from crossing the surface of the dead water.
